@ohos.multimodalInput.inputMonitor (Input Monitor)

The inputMonitor module implements listening for events of input devices, including the touchscreen, mouse, touchpad, etc.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 7. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

The APIs provided by this module are system APIs.

In this document, global indicates the entire touchscreen or touchpad. For example, listening for global touch events means to listen for touch events of the entire touchpad when a user touches at any position on the touchpad.

Modules to Import

import inputMonitor from '@ohos.multimodalInput.inputMonitor';

inputMonitor.on(‘touch’)

on(type: ‘touch’, receiver: TouchEventReceiver): void

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
type	string	Yes	Event type. This field has a fixed value of touch.
receiver	TouchEventReceiver	Yes	Callback used to return the touch event asynchronously.

Example

try {
  inputMonitor.on('touch', (touchEvent: TouchEvent) => {
    console.log(`Monitor on success ${JSON.stringify(touchEvent)}`);
    return false;
  });
} catch (error) {
